Questions


Sometimes we ask those difficult questions like “Why does God allow Pain and disease?” Those are not easy questions to deal with and when asked, I am always thankful that the Holy Spirit is in me guiding my words and giving me sensitivity for the hurting person asking the questions. I shared with a questioning friend that I even struggle some days when my physical aches become overwhelming. But this morning, sitting in my backyard, with bumblebees and hummingbirds flying around, I choose to turn the tables!

Why does God allow a hummingbird to fly so close to me that can see his beautiful iridescent shade of blue?

Why does God allow the pungent smell of the orange blossoms fill my nose with citrusy perfume?

Why did God give me eyes to see the rich colors of a rose and ears to hear the wind in the nearby redwood trees?

Why did God allow Jesus to die for us?

The answer is love. He loves us and nothing can separate us from His love.
